The Hal I art! of the
Haclt Seat Driver
(By Christie Cromwell)
’Twits at a crowded crossing—
Crowds hastened to the spot
Whence came a cry of anguish
And one loud pistol shot
luside an automobile
There lay a woman dead;
Beside it stood the driver,
Who with emotion said:
Chorus
“1 ant this lady’s husband;
Long years ago we wed.
1 loved her very dearly,
But shot her through the head.
1 p’raps should not have killed
her—
It is not right to slay—
But with these back seat drivers
It is the only way.”
As crowds then swarmed about
him
He knelt beside his wife
And said: “My sweet, you forced
me
To turn and take your life;
You gave too many orders
On each and every ride.”
Then summoning a copper,
He very softly cried:
(Chorus)
They took him to a hoosegow
And threw him in a cell.
“If you'd kept still,"he muttered
“You'd be alive and well,
You’d always give directions
To stop or turn or go—
Then calling to the sergeant
He cried: “I’d have you know
(Chorus)
All night he lay and muttered:
“I’m very sorry dear,
But sweet, you drove me nutty
By shouting in my ear,
When I would take a north road
You’d say: ‘The right road's
south/”
Then to a chief detective
These words came from his
mouth:
(Chorus)
To court he soon was taken,
Where mopping up a tear,
lie sohbed: She drove me to
By orders from the rear.
Jn most confusing traffic
Hhe’d bellow wlmt to do,
And as I told the others
I also say to you:
(Chorus)
they
The judge and jury listened,
Then rose and set him free,
“Your net was justified,”
Said: “We do all agree,
We know how* much you suffered
How tortured was your mind
Each time you took her driving,
And this is what we find:
(Chorus)
“Yon were the lady’s husband;
Long years ago you wed.
You loved her very dearly.
But shot her through the head.
}ou p’raps should not have kill-
ed her—
It is not right to slay—
But with these hack scat drivers
It is the only way.”

We do not know if Economii
condition of today is as serious
as if is said to lx*. Jesus said in
Mis teachings and preachings
that He came to bring life, and
bring life more abundantly.
However, tin* Economic eondi
lion of today has not been on
that line. Scenery has taken
place of man, and does not pre-
serve land.
We lire the government.
We are those who place them
in their place and power.
The Economies of tomorrow
depends on tin* outlook of your
and my view point.
If one wishes to get a good
view of the Economic condition
of today, go to the large indus-
trial cities and see the many men
women and little children, walk-
ing I he streets with hunger on
their faces.
If those who are at the head
of our large industries would
take the place of the beggers.
that are tramping the streets,
begging for food and jobs, and
look at it through the eyes of
Christ, there would be a great
change in the Economic order of
today.
If the beggers would look on
industry through Die eyes of Am-
erica much Economic ill would
vanish.
This will be eliminated when
those that are in business, come
out with those with whom they

The primary ill of Die country
today is the machine, which is
supposed to lie the servant of
man, hut, instead, has enslaved
man.
The machines, which are put
use today, to take the place
of man, only, puts about 10(1
people out of work. It is not
eight to have machinery to take
Die place of man, unless, the or-
ganizations are going to put t|1(>
pre-machine man to work in the
place of these machines.
In 11(211 Du* I ailed States a-
lone, put more than 5,000,000
men out of work because of ma-
chinery that was to take their
place.
Today we have a tax on most
everything we use. !)(! cents of
every dollar we pay for taxes
goes for war or preparation for
war. About (JDO,000,000 revenue
Diat comes in from the taxes
goes to pay for batik* ships.
We are warned, that in J 1)40
there will he another world war.
However, if conditions remain
as they are today, the war will
probably he sooner.

If industry will prove to the
world that it is looking at con-

’PHONE 12 CORRIGAN, TEXAS
. . a light forever burning
a Voice that is never stilled
IGHT comes on and spreads a blanket of darkness
X v upon sleeping cities and towns. Here and there
a lone policeman. In the distance a clock tolling the
hour.
In the dark silence of the night, there is one light for-
ever burning . . . one voice that is never stilled. That
light is tlie light in the telephone exchange. That voice
is tiie voice of your telephone.
A city without telephones would be a city afraid—
a city of dread.
For the telephone brings security. Its very presence
gives a feeling of safety and nearness to everything. In
times of stress and sudden need it has a value beyond
price. In business and social activities of a busy day it
is almost indispensable.
The wonder of the telephone is not the instrument
itself but the system of which it is the symbol , . . the
system which links yuur own telephone with any one of
eighteen million others in die United States and thirteen
millions in other countries.
Every time you use your telephone you have at your
command some part of a country-wide network of wires
and equipment, and as many as you need of a great army
of specialists in communication.
There are few aids to modern living that yield so
much in safety, convenience and achievement as your
telephone.
